Acting public protector Kholeka Gcaleka has cleared public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan in the complaint by the EFF's Floyd Shivambu about the appointment of his chief of staff,At a media briefing on Friday, Gcaleka said Gordhan “did not act in violation of the executive code of ethics when he appointed Borotho as chief of staff”.

He sought approval for her appointment in terms of public service regulations from former minister Senzo Mchunu “by way of a deviation for Ms Borotho's lack of formal qualifications”. She also found the department acted lawfully when it appointed Abacus Financial Crime Advisory to investigate public servants suspected of leaking information about the appointment of Borotho.

The appointment was “in compliance with the constitution, preferential procurement policy and broad-based black economic empowerment legislative framework”, said Gcaleka, adding it did not amount to improper conduct or maladministration.This is a developing story.

New board to review management structure of Eskom - GordhanPublic Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan on Wednesday faced several questions around Eskom, ranging from power cuts to proposed tariff increases. The first to go should be this arrogant puffed up fool of a minister. This minister and Gwede needs to go too.. They should be replaced with people who have technical/engineering skills... If such people even exist in ANC. Wrong “culprits” and its a little too late. I believe this is another effort by Gov to react under pressure so that people may be fooled into thinking they are now serious about turning ESCOM around. Sorry guys, ESCOM’s situation is irreversable
